Holland winger Arjen Robben hopes everyone can move on from his dive against Mexico after avoiding retrospective punishment from FIFA.

The Oranje required a remarkable late comeback to overcome El Tri on Sunday, with Wesley Sneijder levelling before substitute Klaas-Jan Huntelaar struck from the spot in stoppage time to secure a 2-1 win.

Robben was taken down by Rafael Marquez for the deciding spot-kick and insisted after the last-16 clash it was "definitely a foul", but courted controversy by admitting he had taken a tumble earlier in the match.

It was a "stupid action" he reportedly apologised for before and after avoiding punishment from FIFA, with head of media Delia Fischer saying the disciplinary committee would only look retrospectively at "serious infringements"- a decision the winger had expected all along.

Asked if he thought he would be sanctioned, Robben said: "No, not at all, why? No.

"I was not afraid, no. I am an honest guy. Nah, nothing. It had no influence on the game."

Before speaking to the media, the Dutch FA (KNVB) felt it necessary to issue a statement insisting Robben's comments to NOS had been misinterpreted.

There was no chance of misconstruing Mexico coach Miguel Herrera's comments, though, as he accused the winger of committing three dives during the match in Fortaleza.

Robben had no problem with such opinions and will remain as honest as ever, despite uproar following his comments.
